Whatever you want...

To get what you want They don’t know you’re in the lead And the kings are behind Fighting for you to cry But your will is your might And your head is held high When they land they will crash When you land you will glide In the heart of the night To the stars, to the moon To all things that are good To her, to him To nothing, to something Whatever you want It will be yours And when you reach where you’re headed There’s no looking back You have your love You have your soul They have nothing except arrogance and gold To know what you want Is to know what you’ll get When they tremble in the ice-dreams of darkness You will move smoothly into bed Sleeping soundly into your heaven And wait for nothing but the morning Nothing but the breeze Of life, of peace Of the clear water, the sound of trees And as you cross mountains And run freely into the forest They won’t know where to go ‘Coz they’ve been following you all along They were nothing without you And you’re everything without them When you get what you want You'll smile at your victory And they’ve learned how to cry As you’ve gained your pride
